I paid my $3.98 to the Blockbuster Gods to rent this movie after hearing some friends rave about it (Fight Club RAWKS!!!!) So here's my opinion.
In a word, it stank.
Not with the simple stink of an accidental fart, but with the planned intensity of a three burrito methane explosion from a chemically enhanced, genetically engineered anus.
That being said, afterward, I began to wonder at the popularity of the film. Why were there so many people out there, from ostensibly mutually exclusive walks of life, who liked this movie (i.e. rednecks, goths, straights, gays, yuppies, hippies, etc.)
After a scientific analysis (involving a bottle of jager and maybe a couple of shots of shnaps) I came to the following conclusion: This movie must appeal to the anti-social extremes within most people.
The WWF is a prime example of the mass popularity of this form of basal stupidity. Betcha if you like watching WWF, you'll like this movie.
You'll also be more likely to enjoy this movie if you:
-Drive a red [insert brand name here] sportscar because you think it makes you cool. -Park same red sportscar in two spaces diagonally because you think it makes you cool and hey, you deserve it. -Puncuate social comments with high-fiving (or head-butting). -Think that anything shown on MTV is still "way cool" or "rad" or "boss" or "the shizz-nit" or "progressive" or "primal" -enjoy reading Nietzche. -love the "goth" lifestyle. -hate the "goth" lifestyle. -think of the "goth" lifestyle in any way other than what it really is -- a way for social misfits to "fit in" by creating a society whereby not "fitting in" is the only way to fit in. -drive a pickup truck. -drive a modified VW bug. -have a fish decal on your bumper. -have a darwin fish decal on your bumper.
Of course . . .
. . . . some of you may have different opinions.
